Code violations: EC pulls up govt
Chandigarh, March 12 The CEO has received 171 complaints, mainly on appeasement voters by the ruling alliance. The Secretary, Food and Supply, has been asked to explain why ration cards bearing the photograph of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal were being distributed. The Secretary has been asked to submit explanation by tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, the ECI has allowed the state government, to implement its new excise policy after distributing liquor sale outlets based on draw of lots. Auction has been denied, sources said. The Congress has been pursuing its complaints with the ECI. On the ration card issue, Congress legislator Sukhpal Singh Khaira has written to the CEO saying, The blue ration cards issued to the beneficiaries carry the photograph of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal with political message. Now as the code has come into force with Lok Sabha Sabha elections announcement, I would request photograph of the Chief Minister be removed from the ration cards and the blue colour of the card changed, since the photo and the colour along with the slogan convey political message that could influence the voters in favour of the SAD-BJP combine. In another decision, the CEO has asked Punjab government to shift back all DSPs, Inspectors and ASIs, transferred after the announcement of the polls to original places of posting. There are many complaints from Gurdaspur, where the Congress has alleged many police officials were transferred after the announcement of the polls so that they could help the ruling party in the polls. With regard to officers who have been serving at one place for over three years and those serving in their home districts, Returning Officer and Assistant Returning Officer have been asked to provide list of all such officials. Meanwhile, Sidhu denied snubbing Amritsar Deputy Commissioner Bhagwant Singh. All communication has been in decorum. According to the office of the CEO, Election Commissioner Navin Chawla is expected to visit Chandigarh on March 21 to review the poll arrangement. The CEO has also summoned a meeting of all parties tomorrow to brief them on the code and apprise them of the upper limit ( Rs 25 lakh) of poll expenses by any candidate. |
Surrogate ads too banned
Jalandhar, March 12 Jalandhar ADC (development) cum Additional District Returning Officer (DRO) Kamalpreet Brar said political parties were directed to mention advt in all advertisements given during electioneering and gap should be maintained between news items and advertisements so that common man was not misled. Many candidates in elections go for surrogate advertisements to mislead the EC on poll expenditure. |
EC go-ahead for liquor vend allocation
Chandigarh, March 12 Financial Commissioner (Taxation) Shivinder Singh Brar said the department had sought approval from the Chief Electoral Officer last week to allow the allocation of liquor vends according to the pre-announced schedule. Today, we have received a communication from the CEOs office that we can go ahead with the draw of lots, he said. Sources added that in 2004, during the last parliamentary elections, the commission had given permission to the state to conduct the allocation of vends as scheduled. At present, there are 4,553 Punjab medium liquor (PML) vends and 2,144 Indian made foreign liquor (IMFL) vends. The number of vends will remain the same during 2009-10. The retail licences for PML and IMFL would be granted by inviting the applications and in case the number of applications is more than the number of licensing units or a group of licensing units to be allotted in a given area then the allotment would be done through draw of lots in the presence of applicants and public and observers to be appointed by the department. The draw of lots would be done in an open and transparent manner in full public view. The slips shall be picked up by the public and preferably from the media personnel and applicants. The person who draws the slip from the jar will read out the name and particulars of the successful allottee, added Brar. This years excise policy states that though there may be a single application from a person for a group of licensing units, the licence fee of the group would be the sum total of the licence fee prescribed for each of the units in the group. A single person may file any number of applications for a particular unit or group of licensing units. This year the earnest money, along with the application fee, has been reduced from 5 per cent of the licence fee to Rs 1 lakh for the corporation areas and Rs 50,000 for other areas. Punjab is expecting to raise an additional Rs 272 crore from excise during 2009-2010 taking the total collections to Rs 2,000 crore. This will translate to an over 15 per cent rise over the last years collection of Rs 1,728 crore. |
Lokpal reports recommendatory: Govt
Chandigarh, March 12 No, says Advocate-General Hardev Singh Mattewal, holding that the reports of the Lokpal are recommendatory in nature and it is for the government to take action on the recommendations. The Punjab Lok Pal, while dealing with 44 complaints regarding the recruitment of art and craft teachers, had recommended in June last year that the state government or the Director of Public Instruction should make a fresh selection committee and put the candidates, not selected earlier, to a fresh interview test. If found suitable for the job, earlier unselected candidates may be offered appointments against the existing vacancies or against vacancies that may arise in the near future by allowing them a concession in age. The Education Department, however, pointed out several legal and technical difficulties in implementing the directions of the Lok Pal. The state government sought the opinion of its Advocate-General on whether the Lokpal could have recommended like he did in his report on art and craft teachers. Since it was an important issue of settling the powers and jurisdiction of the Lok Pal, Mattewal, in his five-page opinion, held that the jurisdiction of the Lokpal is confined to making an inquiry into any matter arising or connected with any allegation of misconduct against a public servant. After inquiry, the Lokpal is to make a report either that no allegation is substantiated or that all or any of the allegations made had been substantiated either wholly or partially and communicate his findings and recommendations to the competent authority. It is clear that this is a limited jurisdiction and the Lokpal does not enjoy general powers of judicial review to adjudicate on the validity of the action of the government or other official action which is available to the constitutional courts namely the HC and the SC. Thus, under the Act, the Lokpal has no jurisdiction to hold and direct that the complainant shall be deemed to have been selected for a particular post and that she be given appointment against any existing vacancy and in case there is no vacancy may be given appointment against the next available vacancy. Mattewal added the Lokpal Act, 1996, is primarily an Act to secure a proper investigation of inquiry against public men and thereby ensuring eradication of corruption, adherence to the rule of law by observing rules of natural justice. In various states, the recommendations of the Lokpal/Lokayukta are not binding on the government. Under Section 16(3) of the Lokpal Act, the Lokpal may make a special report on reviewing the decision to the Governor. There does not appear to be any other provision in the Act whereby the matter could be sent to the Governor to review his orders. The AG held that it was for the government to take decision or action on the recommendations of the Lokpal. |
Ferozepur: Congress undecided on candidate
Ferozepur, March 12 Banking on the caste factor, the ruling SAD has fielded Sher Singh Ghubaiya, a Rai Sikh, by ignoring sitting MP Zora Singh Mann, a Jat Sikh, who had been elected from this constituency for the past three consecutive terms. Ghubaiya is a legislator from the Jalalabad assembly constituency and also holds a senior position in the state government as chief parliamentary secretary. The change in areas after the recent delimitation has also to a great extent forced the SAD to change its candidate. Ghubaiyas name was announced by Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal on January 22 at a rally held at Jalalabad and since then he has already toured the entire constituency to take on the Congress, which has still not finalised its candidate. The fact is that delimitation has not only changed the electoral geography of this prestigious seat but also the caste combinations. The Rai Sikhs and Kambojs altogether comprise more than 60 per cent of the total votes. The Jat Sikhs also play an important role besides the reserved categories and other castes from the Hindu community. The Zira sub-division, dominated by Jat Sikhs, was earlier part of this constituency and has now been included in the Khadoor Sahib constituency, which has to some extent influenced the policy makers of the SAD to field a non-Jat candidate. A few senior leaders of the ruling party feel that Zira was their stronghold and if it had not been removed from the Ferozepur constituency then they would have definitely fielded a Jat Sikh candidate. In a balancing act, the delimitation commission has included Muktsar and Malout areas in the Ferozepur constituency. No matter, the Badals enjoy a good mass support in these areas dominated by the Jats but the experience of the last assembly elections in which the SAD got a major setback in the whole Malwa belt has also forced them to rather concentrate on the border areas of Ferozepur, Jalalabad, Fazilka and Abohar. Therefore, Ghubaiyas selection appears to be more a tactical move by shedding the tag of a party of Jats. The SAD has got an edge in campaigning by already announcing the name of its candidate while the Congress is still groping in the dark even after the announcement of poll dates. There are four main aspirants of the Congress, Jagmeet Singh Brar, Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi, Sunil Jakhar and Hans Raj Joshan. Jagmeet, being a member of the Congress Working Committee (CWC) has an edge. Jagmeet belongs to Muktsar and enjoys a huge mass base on the home turf. Political observers feel that the Congress would not be able to take the service of its local veteran party leader Balram Jakhar due to his constitutional responsibilities but could not leave any stone unturned to capitalise on his name to woo voters of Fazilka and Abohar areas. |
Nabha MLA to back Preneet
Nabha, March 12 A section of media had reported Preneets success would be uphill task because of infighting and opposition by key leaders of the constituency, including Randeep. I have proposed the name of Maharani Sahiba, how could I betray her, asked Randeep here . He said there were good chances of the Maharani getting party ticket for Patiala constituency and added he was for the victory of the Congress candidate. Anticipating support from all Congress MLAs , leaders and workers of the constituency, Randeep said all of them would back the party candidate. |
Ex-Services League names candidates for four seats
Sangrur, March 12 The Indian Ex-Services League (Punjab and Chandigarh) here today declared its candidates for Sangrur, Bathinda, Ludhiana and Chandigarh Lok Sabha constituencies. State president Col Bhag Singh (retd) will be candidate of the League from Ludhiana Lok Sabha seat while state vice- president of the League Capt Atma Singh Grewal (retd) will contest from Sangrur. Lt Col Daya Singh (retd) will be Leagues candidate from Bathinda seat and Brigadier Harwant Singh (retd) from Chandigarh. Col Bhag Singh said the League would announce its candidates for Lok Sabha seats of Punjab at a rally of the League to be held at Begowal (Kapurthala) on March 18. He disclosed the League might also contest elections in the state by forming alliance with any party, which would promise to work for the welfare of the ex-servicemen. Col Bhag Singh was here in connection with a rally, organised by the district unit of the Indian Ex-Services League (Punjab and Chandigarh) at War Heroes Stadium. More than 1,000 ex-servicemen took part in the rally. They were protesting against non-acceptance of their demands by the government, including one rank, one pension and scrapping of recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission for defence forces. Sangrur MP Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa assured ex-soldiers to arrange a meeting of the League with the Punjab Chief Minister on their demands, related to the state government. District BJP president Jatinder Kalra, district senior vice- president of the League Pritam Singh Bhinder, and district vice-presidents of the League Sarup Singh and Karnail Singh were among the speakers. |
Chandumajra to work for Patiala water needs
Patiala, March 12 He said he had formulated plans to utilise available water from the canal network and rain harvesting so that needs for irrigation and potable water were met, besides tackling floods. The Central government alone could provide adequate funds to meet these objectives. Professor Chandumajra alleged that Congress partisan attitude towards Punjab was evident as the state was still deprived of its capital, river waters and Punjabi-speaking areas. The Akali leader said state Congress leaders lacked vision and completed their tenures while accumulating wealth and enjoying the privileges of office. They were not sincere to the electorate and were ever eager to please their masters in Delhi, he added. |
Chief Khalsa Diwan Poll Row
Amritsar, March 12 Factionalism in the Diwan has come to the fore over election. One faction moved court and the date of hearing has been fixed for March 13. The Diwan has Rs 16 crore budget and runs many educational and social institutes, including an orphanage where Shaheed Udham Singh was brought up. Earlier, on December 24, 2003 Akal Takht had directed to postpone elections of the Diwan scheduled for January 4, 2004. After gap of five years, Tarlochan Singh, Rajya Sabha member and former chairman of the National Commission for Minorities (NCM), wrote to Jathedar Akal Takht, Giani Gurbachan Singh urging him to intervene to ensure holding of election. Akal Takht intervened to postpone elections, scheduled for January 4, 2004 on the basis of the recommendations by the committee of Justice R.S. Narula and Justice Kuldip Singh, Principal Ram Singh, Dr Prithipal Singh Kapur and Dr Kharak Singh. |

India to overcome meltdown soon
Amritsar, March 12 Professor Tendulkar said global economic turbulence since mid-2008 was very primarily due to financial instability in the USA and rising commodity prices (including food, steel and oil), rising interest rates, rising inflation, falling demand, etc. He said in the last quarter of fiscal 2008-09, many advanced countries like the UK, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand experienced negative growth. Some heat of the economic meltdown in the form of psychological import of what is happening in advanced countries had, of course, been felt in India too, he added. Tndulkar said growth of Indian economy had fallen from 7.8 per cent to 5.4 per cent, resulting primarily from falling trade of items like gems and jewellery, textiles and to some extent, IT sector. He said though there had been loss of jobs in India, estimated to be 10 lakh in relation to total work force of 450 million, yet in percentage terms, job loss was less than that of about 8.1 per cent in the USA. Demand has been hit in metropolitan cities. However, incomes in rural areas had remained unaffected due to which the impact of economic meltdown had remained virtually negligible in rural regions and similarly in non-metropolitan urban pockets. |
Blood donation: Sikh bodies break record
Anandpur Sahib, March 12 Camp started at 7:25 pm on March 10 at local Khalsa College and ended at 11:25 pm with final donations reaching tally of 18, 207. Earlier, the Sikh bodies have been claiming to collect 25, 000 units of blood. It was a long and tardy exercise. Before organising it we never knew that there is any world record and nor did we aim at one. Gradually, from different quarters, we were encouraged to set a benchmark and contacted the Guinness Book of World Records authority, said advocate Jagwinder Singh, the in-charge of Akal Purkh Ki Fauj, that organised the entire activity. The Guinness Book of World Records has entry of Dera Sacha Sauda, Sirsa, for holding largest blood donation camp in world at Bapu Ji village in Sri Gangananagar. The camp was held on October 10, 2004 and attracted 17, 921 donors. Organisers are yet to compile data on gender basis. We expect that more than 30 per cent of donor were women, which was a surprise for everybody. The final stats may start pouring in after three to four days, said Jaswinder Singh Jassi, the spokesperson of camp. After the data is compiled and formalities completed, the entire dossier of event and its proceedings will be sent to the Guinnesss Book of World Records. The site for camp was divided into 14 blocks, each having 50 beds. There were around 2,500 donations in one hour averaging 15 minutes per donor. As many as 5,000 volunteers, including 3,000 paramedical staff, were deployed to ensure smooth working of camp. A team of 100 doctors was deployed at different investigation counters to oversee arrangement. Over 110 blood banks from all over country had assembled to collect blood from this camp. |
Fire incident at thermal plant
Ropar, March 12 But the chairman was greeted with black flags carried by the employees, who were protesting against the various policies of the PSEB. The employees were acting on a call given by employees joint action committee of the board. Brar remained at the plant for more than two hours and discussed the matter with authorities. A fire broke out in unit number 6, leading to the suspension of electricity generation on March 10. Sources said it might take another 10 days for generation to start at the unit. The fire broke out on Tuesday afternoon and damaged more than 400 cables. Member, Generation, GS Sra had visited the plant on Tuesday evening to assess the damage. The PSEB may suffer a financial loss of more than Rs 15 crore due to closure of this unit. It may take around 10 days to replace charred cables and synchronise the units generation. This also includes generation loss. The unit was generating 50 lakh units daily worth Rs 1.5 crore. According to sources, this is the fourth incidence of fire in stage III. Earlier unit number 5 remained closed for about a month when a fire broke out in the cable gallery on June 15 last. Fire incidences had also occurred earlier on May 16 and August 29 last year resulting in tripping of unit. According to a senior plant official, continuous emission of coal dust from coal mills and resultant accumulation of coal dust on steam pipes and cables leads to fire. Poor maintenance and upkeep add to the woes. |

Irish Soda Bread
I am very excited to be joining my friend Lynn, at Happier Than a Pig in Mud, this week for her first Celebrity Chef of the Month Party. This month's celebrity chef is Ina Garten, AKA Barefoot Contessa. In keeping with our Irish theme, I tested Ina's recipe for Irish Soda Bread.
Irish Soda Bread is perfect paired with Corned Beef and Cabbage or Irish Stew. It is a very dense and rustic bread, making it ideal for dipping into the broth of these two dishes.
Ina Garten's Irish Soda Bread
4 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for currants
4 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 3/4 cups cold buttermilk, shaken
1 extra-large egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 cup dried currants
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the butter and mix on low speed until the butter is mixed into the flour.
With a fork, lightly beat the buttermilk, egg, and orange zest together in a measuring cup. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture. Combine the currants with 1 tablespoon of flour and mix into the dough. It will be very wet.
Dump the dough onto a well-floured board and knead it a few times into a round loaf. Place the loaf on the prepared sheet pan and lightly cut an X into the top of the bread with a serrated knife. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. When you tap the loaf, it will have a hollow sound.
Cool on a baking rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

http://www.torontosun.com/2013/07/16/what-would-your-dream-airport-look-like Cool article talking about a dream airport. Lord knows it will never happen in North America. Probably Dubai if anywhere. But kinda cool to look at: What what would you guys want the most added to airports?
I'd like there to be an outdoors area like a park. Every time Im in an airport Im stuck inside there trapped til my plane shows up. A cinema would be great since some flights are delayed hours and hours, catching a movie would make that less annoying. And bars, more booze is good.
I was stuck in Denver's airport for 12 hours. Scarecrow predicted it too lol. Though the airline was horribly disorganized that day I have to say it is a great airport!
An airport that allows me to carry my baby Mary Jane on the plane! I hate having to buy the weak sh-- when I get to my destination.
JFK is 50X better than Newark, there's a jail next to Newark airport that looks nicer. And WTF is that smell? Jersey sucks, need another hurricane to come clean that dump up.
Seattle has a nice airport. Lots of wood. Real pacific northwest kinda feel to it. And some really good bars with some of that great Washington-Oregon-Alaska craft beer. Their Wifi is not the best though

Q. Is it possible that stocked trout deplete the level of insect life necessary to sustain native trout? We have a heavily stocked stream with some feisty natives but very little insect activity. Bob Harvey
This question isn't quite as easy to answer as it might appear. The
short answer to your question is that the low populations of insects in your
stream could be because of increased trout predation – but, it could also be
related to a small food base for the insects. Ecologists refer to these two
situations as "top down" and "bottom up" control. If you'll bear with me,
I'll explain and see how it might fit your situation.
You are essentially dealing with three feeding levels in the food web; the
predatory trout, the omnivorous insects, and the food base of the insects (algae
growing on the rocks and detritus); all are competing for resources (food,
space, etc.). In the usual situation, the rule of thumb is that it takes about
10 times as much biomass at one level to support the next level. Roughly, 100
grams of algae would support 10 grams of insects that would support 1 gram of
trout biomass; each food level will support only a certain amount of biomass
that feeds on it. (There's an interesting story called "Allen's Paradox"
concerning brown trout and insects in the Horokiwi Stream in New Zealand that
has fascinated ecologists for years – but that's another story). Now let's see
how this situation might change if conditions at one level change, and please
realize that I'm using a pretty simplistic situation.
Stocking more trout would result in increased predation on the insects and a
lowering of their population. This would continue until the 10:1 ratio again
became established, either from fewer trout or more insects. A decreased
insect population would result in a lessened impact on the algal community, with a
resulting increase in algal biomass. Increasing algal biomass would provide
food for more insects. However, the insects cannot take immediate advantage
of the increased algal food base because they must go through an entire life
cycle (taking months to years to complete), so you don't see an immediate
increase in their numbers. Once new generations hatch, the increased food base can
support more insects until the 100:10:1 ratio again becomes established. This
is an example of "top down" control.
However, if a decrease in the insect population did not result in a
proliferation of algal growth, it probably indicates that some other factor is limiting
the growth of algae; this could be low nutrients, shading, unsuitable
substrate, or some other ecological factor. In this case, the limits on the insect,
and hence the trout, population are because of an inadequate food supply; this
is "bottom up" control.
Unfortunately, we do not know what the insect population in your stream was
like prior to introduction of the stocked trout. If insects were more
numerous, then it is likely that the trout are exerting "top down" control and you
should see more algae on the bottom than before; again, we don't know. If,
however, the insect population was always low, then their numbers might be "bottom
controlled" with additional pressure from the trout.
There are some other factors that enter into your situation that may or may
not play significantly. The stocked trout will increase the impact on the
insect community, depending upon how many stocked fish there are relative to the
native population, and upon their aggressiveness. If the stocked trout are
relatively low in number as compared to the natives, they will probably have
little overall impact. Further, most stocked populations are less aggressive than
natives because they are used to being fed and take awhile to learn that they
are on their own and must find and compete for a strange and different food
base. Another factor depends on the angling situation; if it is a heavily
fished stream, the stockers usually don't remain long enough to have a significant
impact; they are caught and removed quickly, unless it is a catch-and-release
situation where they may not be removed. Nevertheless, most stocked fish
don't survive as well as the natives. Montana stopped stocking streams years ago
when they discovered that it didn't help fishing at all; in fact it hurt it.
This, however, may not be feasible everywhere.
Well, this is probably more than you wanted, but I hope it is of interest.
If you have further questions, let me know.

I just heard that in Mary J Blige's song Mr. Wrong. I also watched a small portion of a Millionaire Matchmaker episode where she essentially said the same thing by saying you pick personality over looks for a serious relationship (whereas looks might be more important in a non-serious relationship). What do you think? Is it possible to have it all?

text: We've been working together for just a few months now, sending OSBG interns and service learners up to work on their farms, growing food, herding cattle, caring for baby chicks, fixing fence, the list goes on. As part of Food Justice Summer, hundreds of highschool and college students from Louisiana and across the country will spend time working with Naomi, Wayne and other farmers across Louisiana, learning about bottom-up community organizing and growing a whole lot of food. It was clear by Naomi and Wayne's excitement to finally connect that we've all reached the beginning of a really important relationship. Imagine a future where farmers across the delta know each other and are working together to make their farms and our food system whole again.

Galveston Mayor Teams Up with Community Activists and Fellow Mayors to Promote Prostate Cancer Awareness
| |
Need met opportunity when Mayor Quiroga started Galveston's prostate cancer awareness initiative. He had long been concerned about the health risk that prostate cancer poses for his community, particularly for Galveston's sizable African American population. Therefore, he was prepared when community activist Glory Jackson asked him to take the lead on educating Galveston about prostate cancer because so many men were dying unnecessarily. Opening his brief case, he pulled out the Prostate Cancer Awareness Month (PCAM) promotion packet he had just received from the Conference of Mayors and presented it to Mrs. Jackson. Then and there, they decided to match Mayor Quiroga's efforts through the Mayors' Coalition for Prostate Cancer Awareness and Education with the activities of Mrs. Jackson's advocacy group, J.E.W.E.L.S. (Just Effort With Endless Love Supporting . . . ).
Mayor Quiroga and Mrs. Jackson came up with a multicultural program to promote prostate cancer awareness through churches and community events during PCAM and the rest of the year and to conduct screening through the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. Mayor Quiroga summed up the need for his initiative by saying, "I want the people of Galveston to know that there is a deadly killer out there - - prostate cancer - - but that there are means to detect this disease and save lives. I am honored to lead this effort with Glory."
Integral to the program is the use of volunteers. As a public and private sector employer, Mayor Quiroga believes in giving his employees opportunities for volunteerism, and many are supporting Galveston's prostate cancer awareness activities.
Covering The County
Mayor Quiroga's objective is to extend his prostate cancer awareness program throughout Galveston County, with the ultimate goal being to address all cancers through J.E.W.E.L.S. Collaboration is well underway with Texas City Mayor Carlos Garza, and Mayor Quiroga invited all area mayors to join his PCAM kickoff press conference.
Weekly PCAM Events
Galveston is observing PCAM throughout the month of September with the following weekly events.
PCAM Kickoff: At his August 31 press conference, Mayor Quiroga urged Galveston County men to talk to their physicians about prostate cancer and to assist J.E.W.E.L.S. in raising awareness of this disease.
Cityside Cookout: Following the kickoff press conference, city employees volunteered for the Cityside Cookout, an event that raised funds for cancer patients in treatment and also heightened community awareness of prostate cancer. Held at the Paradigm Bank, of which Mayor Quiroga is president, bank employees including Mrs. Jackson also helped to make the event a resounding success.
City Hall: After Mayor Quiroga issued his September 7 PCAM proclamation at City Hall, J.E.W.E.L.S. volunteers appeared before the city council to talk about their goals for prostate cancer awareness in Galveston. Volunteers also distributed prostate cancer awareness materials to city employees and answered questions.
Shiloh Church: Shiloh Church, with a congregation of 2,500 members, feeds the community once a week. J.E.W.E.L.S. volunteers will distribute prostate cancer awareness materials to those being served by the church on September 12.
Galveston College: J.E.W.E.L.S. volunteers will distribute prostate cancer awareness materials to students and staff members of Galveston College on September 18 and will be available to answer questions.
Black Sunday: Black Sunday ("a blackout on cancer") will be held on September 23 with Mayor Quiroga taking the lead at his church and other volunteers following suit at their respective houses of worship. Pastors, wearing black arm bands, will talk about the importance of early detection for both prostate and breast cancer and will also help recruit more volunteers for J.E.W.E.L.S. Blue and pink ribbons will be entwined with a black ribbon and distributed to all persons attending services on Black Sunday. Contributions will be accepted for assisting cancer patients with obtaining necessities. This event will reach large numbers of people because Galveston has 38 churches, and some volunteers attend Houston churches.
Awareness Luncheon and Screening: Toward the end of the month, free screening for prostate cancer will be conducted by the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. An awareness luncheon entitled, "It's a Guy Thing: Not for Men Only," will be held for men and their partners at the screening facility.
A Faith-Based Focus for J.E.W.E.L.S.
As a breast cancer survivor and having experienced many cancer-related deaths in her family, Glory Jackson saw the need for a support group and started J.E.W.E.L.S. in 1991 while living in Los Angeles. Based in an African American church, she and seven other cancer survivors built an organization to help cancer patients and their families get through treatment. Two years later, she established a chapter in San Antonio and in 1995 she started the Galveston chapter.
While J.E.W.E.L.S. initially had an African American focus and currently works closely with the National Black Leadership Initiative on Cancer, its mission is to serve all races and ethnic groups. Through its focus on conducting activities with churches, it has created an extensive community network for this purpose.
The J.E.W.E.L.S. approach has come to the attention of the Texas Department of Health, which has plans to fund 5 pilot sites throughout the state - - Austin, Dayton, Denton, Garland, and San Antonio.
Possible Statewide Mayors' Conference
The Texas Department of Health is also very interested in the collaborative approach that Mayor Quiroga is taking in Galveston County. Thought is being given to holding a conference of Texas mayors to enlist their support in raising awareness of cancer throughout the state.

Gallery: LEED-Seeking Greenland Residence Boasts an EV-Ready Garage and...
A geothermal system keeps the home warm in winter and cool in summer
How is it possible to ensure that a home this large has a gentle environmental impact? Studio One shows us how with the charming Greenland Residence. Reached by a long private drive and carefully oriented on an east-west axis, the home has a geothermal system that keeps it warm in winter and cool in summer. Extra efficient glazing provides daylighting while allowing for just enough solar gain to bolster interior temperatures in winter, but deep overhangs keep the inhabitants from roasting during Georgia's sultry summers.
An underground rainwater collector helps to conserve water and all of the home's appliances are rated for optimum energy efficiency. Solar power is on the agenda, as are electric vehicles, and the LEED certification process is still pending. Albeit really quite large, the exposed Douglas Fir rafters, flooring and cabinetry combined with Yellow pine decking and trim lends a warm aesthetic to the home, which also features a certain amount of recycled content.

home > renters insurance > states > arizona
or call 1-866-439-5633
(daily, 5 a.m.–9 p.m. PT)
There's a lot to love about renting in Arizona. For instance, you can save money as you further your career, and have flexible moving options. Oh yeah … there's one other nifty perk — the low cost of Arizona renters insurance!
Renters insurance provides the type of key protection that makes it an Arizonan's most useful accessory (besides a wide-brimmed hat). Renters coverage can help repair your damaged belongings, provide medical payments for injured guests, and many more things your landlord's insurance policy simply won't do.
Though Esurance doesn't offer renters insurance in Arizona, we'll be happy to help residents secure reliable, affordable coverage with our partner. Simply start your quote through us; it's that easy!

In case you thought the idea had gone away – European media and telco commissioner Viviane Reding still wants to give online retailers the right to sell music, movies and video games across EU borders, leading to lower prices and increased competition across the continent.
That's just one of eight proposed policies released today by Reding and consumer affairs commissioner Meglena Kuneva in a wish-list of issues they want to EU to take further action on. The pair also want tougher criminal and civil legislation to combat spam, clearer rules on home copying of music and EU-wide DRM systems for content. Reding and Kuneva also today release an online guide to consumer rights setting out what people can expect from broadband providers and online retailers in terms of service, and from social networks in terms of privacy.
Reding says: "In the EU, consumer rights online should not depend on where a company or website is based. National borders should no longer complicate European consumers' lives when they go online to buy a book or download a song." But these are not actual legislation submissions — just areas Reding and Kuneva have identified "for possible EU action". More after the jump…
Reding has long campaigned for consumers to be able to buy online content not just from the country they live in but from any of the 27 EU member states. She wants to sweep away the current system under which individual collecting societies, such as PRS For Music in the UK, administer each country's copyright systems. In January last year Reding introduced the Creative Content Online In The Single Market, which she promised would "support development of innovative business models, cross-border services and consumer-friendly offers".
Reding's proposals, in fact, go back to 2006 and got renewed impetus from Apple's regulatory headaches in introducing its movie download store in Europe. In January Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) was forced to harmonise its UK iTunes prices with the rest of Europe despite the differing fees it pays to collecting societies in each country.

A new "interactive" trailer for Evolve, which can be viewed from each player's perspective or the from the monster view, will be released on 24 April according to these moving pictures below.
The best way to tease a trailer is with another trailer apparently. It's a bit of a slow news day thanks to it being a holiday so we'll take what we can.

Pulmonary hypertension is a serious disease, and without proper care it can be deadly. It is imperative that the PH patient seek a physician who specializes in treating pulmonary hypertension.
Often these doctors are associated with teaching hospitals where PH research is on-going. Many patients travel hundreds of miles (I drive to Denver, CO which is over 400 miles, one way) for their appointments with their PH doctors. Since these doctors are also researchers and professors, their schedules are full: it is typical to have a 3 - 4 month wait for the initial appointment.
Doctors can be found on the Pulmonary Hypertension Association and the PH Central websites.
Just like the winds that blow through Wyoming, the thoughts posted here are varied - some a strong tirade and others merely a whisper.

Manufacturer: Wintec
Model: Isabel with Cair panels
Category: Dressage Saddles
Purchase: I bought the Isabel Wintec online at Adams Horse Supply for $940.00. The price included a Cair girth, leathers, complete gullet kit, and stirrup irons, plus free shipping!
Likes: This is a magic saddle. I never thought I would ever purchase a Wintec saddle, being a leather snob, but I borrowed a friends' and was instantly in love. On the first ride, my position was made sooo much better, my horse went like a dream. I bought one for myself (after asking if she would sell me hers, but she is no dummy) a week later and the rides have been getting better and better. I ride a number of different horses at my barn, and it has been the same story with all of them. Even the most difficult horses respond beautifully. I have to think it is a combination of the wonderful, relaxed, correct position it puts the rider in, plus the comfort the saddle itself provides to the horse.
Dislikes: Nothing...I have had to put up with some snotty comments from other leather snobs at my barn, but when riding feels this great, who cares? Their loss....
Quality: Mine is only a couple weeks old, but my friends' Isabel is at least 10 years old and it looks and feels fantastic.
Summary: This is a magic saddle....leather snob or not, buy one!

Consumer fund draws downside play
Chris McKhann | [email protected]
A trader bought 6,300 March 32 puts for the ask price of $0.39, according to optionMONSTER's Depth Chrage tracking system. Open interest was just 245 contracts at the start of the session, so this is a new opening position.
The XLP was down 0.17 percent yesterday to close at $35.14. The exchange-traded fund reached a high of 52-week high of $36.59 a month ago but has been slipping since. Shares had been in a steady uptrend since last November from a 52-week low just above $30.
The put buying could be an outright bearish position, though shares haven't finished below the $32 strike price since mid-December. The options could also be hedging against long shares looking to protect recent gains. (See our Education section)

Management of lactation mastitis in a Western Australian cohort
Fetherston, C. (1997) Management of lactation mastitis in a Western Australian cohort. Breastfeeding review, 5 (2). pp. 13-19.
*Subscription may be required
This study describes the reported management and treatment strategies which are advised by health professionals and undertaken by mothers with mastitis using data obtained from a self report questionnaire completed by women who suffered a total of 78 cases of mastitis within the first three months postpartum. This study revealed two important areas that need to be addressed by practitioners treating women with mastitis. Firstly, a greater emphasis must be placed on determining potential causal factors for individuals cases of mastitis to aid in the prevention and management of recurrent episodes. Secondly, women require more information on all aspects of mastitis ranging from causal factors to information on the efficacy of the broad range of treatment strategies available.

1 pound bacon
1 cup bread cubes
2 3/4 cups milk
12 eggs
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup butter
1 pound Swiss cheese, shredded
4 teaspoons butter, melted
1 cup dry bread crumbs
Awesome! I have never had to pass out so many recipies. I added two cups of bread cubes, for the same reason some have stated before and I added my secret scrambled egg ingredient...two tablespoons of whatever mustard you like. It doesn't taste mustardy at all but give the eggs such a depth of flavor! Its good reheated too. Love this and my boys are already begging for me to make more!
we are very disappointed with this recipe. i wanted to use up some swiss cheese i had on hand and thought this would be a nice change for a dinner. first, it took much, much longer to prepare than stated and i even had my husband helping me. second, it called for too much cheese. maybe half the amount and change the type to mozzarella and it would be better? third, the bread crumbs on top made for a strange texture. all in all, it was edible. and i'm very disappointed since the ingredients aren't exactly cheap. all the 5 star ratings were very misleading on this one.
15 Ratings
I make this dish quite frequently & it is wonderful! To simplify things I use a can of real bacon bits & use sliced cheese when I don't have shredded on hand.
Served this at a ladies' brunch and it received rave reviews!
I wanted to serve this to a group of 40 people so I tried it out first for a small brunch. Everyone really liked it but thought a little kick would make it even more delicious. I will serve Tabasco on the side. I also added a little more bread, less cheese and added green onions. I am also going to do a sausage one for the group I'm serving.
This was really wonderful but I didn't use as much cheese. I really liked fixing it the night before.
This is just an awesome recipe. I made 2 days ahead and it was fine. Couple of tips....recipe calls for 16 oz of swiss. I used 6 oz and it was plenty. Also, double the bread as suggested by others. I covered with foil while baking. Finally, next time I make I will definitely cut way back on the butter.
Very tasty. Takes longer to prepare than indicated in the recipe, though. For instance, I grated the cheese instead of buying it pre-grated. Also, I don't have a pan that can cook a pound of bacon all at once so cooking it in batches makes for a longer preparation time.

chris- your stories are wonderful. you convey beauty and nature well. thank you.
i hope we are all able to meet some day.
Exploring the Highest Region
Tuesday, I took a day trip to the hot springs at Wondo Genet. They were nice and hot. The water is heated by the volcanic action under ground and actually has to be cooled before filling the pools. People come from far and wide to bathe and drink. The locals actually cook potatoes and corn in the hottest water. There's a cold creek for hydrotherapy, too. I was happy to know I was walking in the footsteps of Bob and His Majesty himself. The ride to the springs takes you into a deep valley falling off the plateau that Shashemane sits on. The greenery was rich and the mountains steep. The monoculture plots in the valley are smaller than most places, and there are at least four different main crops being grown - sugar, potatoes, maize and beans - plus bananas and enset.
Wednesday, I began a three-day intro to permaculture workshop for teachers and staff of the JRDC School. Most of the Ethiopian teachers chose not to participate, but I was happy to be working with the few rastas in attendance. Day one was an intro to the subject, and I presented some exercises they could do with the youths at the school. Day two, I gave a slide show of the whole trip from S.A. to Ethiopia. And day three, I presented the knowledge of meeting in ordered council that I had picked up in Zimbabwe. All the ideas were well recieved, and the response was strictly positive. It was nice to be preaching to the choir. I didn't have to explain so much. The participants recieved certificates of attendance.
Thursday morning, Maurice and I went down to Awasa to buy tilapia for his mom. It was easy enough to get to the lake. I felt bad that the fisherman increased the price when they saw me with Maurice. I think it worked out in the end. I was amazed to find that the people each raw fish at the lake shore. Women bring flat bread and hot sauce, which they put on a plate for one birr (12 cents). Then you take your plate down to the boats where the men are filleting the fish. The fillets are cut into small pieces (a heap of fillets is 1 birr), and that's it - like Ethiopian sashimi or sushi - flat bread, raw fish and hot sauce. Maurice had never tried it, but when I told him how good Japanese sushi was, he wanted to. We shared a plate, and it was very good, high energy food. The fish wasn't quite as tender as fresh salmon or tuna. The hot sauce was nice and hot.
Later that day, sister Tibebwa and her co-worker showed up to the slide show. Afterwards, we had much to reason about, but they were rushing to the hot springs, so I went with them. The springs were nice at night, though with all the artificial light, the stars were faint. We eventually had the whole place to ourselves, and stayed at a nice, but cheap, hotel down the hill from the springs. We exchanged a few contacts. I learned of a sister trying to get Midnite to play in Shashamane, a place teaching permaculture in Addis Ababa called Biofarm, and a brother in Mombasa also practicing permaculture. Tibebwa is now on her way to Mombasa to visit him, and I may see her when I get back there next week.
The food here in Ethiopia is so nice and natural, especially living with Jamaicans. My family makes gallons of sorrel weekly. This is a drink common in Jamaica, made of sorrel (rumex acetosa), ginger, lemon and sugar. I'm also served herbal (lemongrass and mint) teas daily. I eat fried fish almost every day, usually with rice and red beans, salad and a red sauce. The sauce is red because of the berbere. It is the most common spice, used here by everyone; berbere is made of red pepper, salt, ginger, garlic, black cumin, anise, etc. Generally, people make their own with their own twists. Some people prefer the simpler and hotter mithamithe, usually made of just red pepper, salt, garlic and ginger. I'll try to ship some back.
Last night, I hung out with the d.j.'s at the Twelve Tribes Headquarters. They have an amazing collection of vinyl, including plenty of l.p.'s and at least 150 45's. I was hearing and seeing records that can't be found anymore. That's not to mention that they have one of the heaviest sound systems I've heard. I'm amazed there's enough power to fire it. I skanked late into the night.
Greeting in the name of the lord god, I have been to shashamane,It,s was a dispiontment, I have seen my brother and sister who came from the west liveing like dog and cat, cry out for help, I was shame to see the school ,what problem,they haveing, all that free donation , for school , and the school looking like they are cry out help,I NEVER SEE so much corruption in rastafari
i must defend shashamane. enough brethren and sistren are force to live like dogs in the west. when you sight his majesty, you put those ways aside and make something better for yourself, no matter what. rastafari don't live like dog. shashamane is for peace and safety. his majesty decree. are you going to tell the father, "thanks but no thanks" for the land he gave us? you can't disrespect shashamane if you never help build it. go there now and see. people are moving, the nations are changing. new millineum shashamane is different than shash of 5 or 10 years ago. more ras arrive, more ras sight his majesty and make things right. you don't sight him, you live like dog, then you not rastafari. the early years were hard. brethren arrive, but can't make it starting from scratch. zion is a test some cannot pass. but enough did make it. their success is the foundation we have to build on. don't squander it.
